What is nichrome? State its one use.
Give two reasons why nichrome alloy is used for making the heating elements of electrical appliances.
A heating coil has a resistance of 200 Ω. At what rate will heat be produced in it when a current of 2.5 A flows through it?
The current passing through an electric kettle has been doubled. The heat produced will become:
(a) half
(b) double
(c) four time
(d) one-fourth
Give Scientific reason
In the electric equipment producing heat e.g. iron, electric heater, boiler, toaster etc, an alloy such as Nichrome is used, not pure metals.
Give Scientific reason.
In practice, the unit kWh is used for the measurement of electrical energy, rather than joule.
